409 The battle of the Royal Palace part 9
Kevin had also ordered them to avoid killing the soldiers who were only obeying the orders they received, and that on the other hand, all those who had a black mark on their foreheads were to be eliminated on the spot.
They weren’t far from where Sora was being held prisoner, and the fact that Kevin was leading their group had a strange effect on the soldiers they encountered.
When the soldiers who had stayed here to guard this wing of the Royal Palace saw the symbol on his forehead, they all fled completely terrified.
Brice then started to complain, if he had known he would have insisted on being part of the frontal assault, and he said to Kevin in a grumpy tone : “Boss, I know you can be scary, but this is really too much, they are not even trying to fight us, are you sure they are soldiers at least ?”
Kevin smirked and then he told himĀ : “Oh that’s right, I completely forgot to warn you guys, the Warrior Spirits here, the ones with the same golden symbol as me on their foreheads, are considered a bit like a kind of Gods by these humans, that’s probably why they’re running away, although I honestly didn’t expect that either.”
Connor preferred not to say anything, but every time they met a group of soldiers, Kevin not only had an aura of power that was terrifying for these ordinary soldiers, who were not that strong, but he also had a creepy smile that formed on his face that gave him goosebumps, so it didn’t surprise him at all that these soldiers ran away when they saw him.
Suddenly Kevin received notification from his system that 6 fighters were positioned in ambush a little further, and according to where they were hidden, he deduced that it shouldn’t be simple soldiers.
He signaled everyone to stop and he said to them : “Finally, we can start playing with those bastards.”
Then he shouted to the fighters who were still hidden : “Show yourselves, or else I’ll just blow you up with the walls.”
6 men came out of the shadows and all of them had a black mark on their foreheads, Kevin whistled when he saw this and he said to his team : “Solomon, you and your partner come with me and Connor, the others will take care of them.”
He then said to Mathias and Brice using the communication stones, ‘Guys, use all the fighting techniques I taught you and don’t make this fight last too long or they might take advantage of it to kill you.
These fighters have a lot of experiences so you mustn’t underestimate them, be careful, is that understood ?’
He then thought of something and as soon as this idea crossed his mind, he immediately did it.
He wrapped a gold chain around one of the forearms of each man on his team, and he even put one on Solomon’s.
And he explained quickly to them when he saw that they were looking at him with a stunned look on their facesĀ : “My Chains of Restraint are powerful enough to protect you and they will only intervene if you are really in danger.
Also, don’t forget to use the legendary grade healing potions that were given to you before the fight, and above all stay with your partner and work as a team to kill them, they are also 6 so 1 each and be merciless.”
Kevin then opened a teleportation portal in front of them that would take them just across this hallway to where the room where Sora was being held prisoner was located and he immediately went through it, followed closely by Connor and the others.
He wasn’t worried about his men or Solomon’s men because even if Cassandra’s or Lilith’s soldiers had special skills or a black pill that could boost their level, his Chains of Restraint would protect them.
Once on the other side he was immediately attacked by a Titan and while parrying his blows, he sent an order to his Chain of Restraint that was on Connor’s forearm for it to create immediately a shield around Connor whose mental state was not yet stable enough to fight against this kind of powerful opponent.
Luckily his Chains of Restraint were unlimited and they were very responsive, allowing him to fight with peace of mind without having to worry about the safety of others.
When Solomon arrived he immediately saw that his uncle was safe and Kevin used the communication stones to tell him to take care of the four remaining men with his partner.
Only two of them had a black symbol on their foreheads and Solomon, who rarely used the full power of his demonic side, let it fully express itself for once, which increased his power considerably.
He avoided using it as much as possible because he didn’t like the negative energy that came out of his demonic side, but this time Sora was behind that door and those bastards were preventing him from reaching her which was a good enough reason to use it.
His eyes turned crimson red and a terrifying red aura enveloped his entire body.
Jason who was his partner for this mission and who had fought so many battles with him that he couldn’t count them, shuddered when he felt the new power that emanated from Solomon.
It was so rare to see him use it that he didn’t think twice and followed him right after, also unleashing the full power of his demonic side.
There were really very few demons who could use their demonic side to the fullest, Derek and other Generals could do it too, but to awaken this kind of power one needed a very strong mind, because otherwise that red aura appearing around their body could devour them, and no potion or spell could save them when that red aura turned against them.
This is also why most demons didn’t even try to use their demonic side because there was too much risk.
The pressure their auras were putting on the soldiers in front of him caused them to stumble and those without a mark on their foreheads ran away without looking back.
On the contrary, those who remained smirked and immediately used their original form.
